Based on the excerpt from Virginia Woolf's 'To the Lighthouse': '“So she looked over her shoulder, at the town. The lights were rippling and running as if they were drops of silver water held firm in a wind. And all the poverty, all the suffering had turned to that, Mrs. Ramsay thought. To the Lighthouse, she said to herself, raising her hand as if to let the bird fly free.' In the context of this passage, what does the term 'lighthouse' metaphorically represent in terms of the English vocabulary for objects and parts of the house?
